Spicer made the «mistake» at a daily news briefing, during a discussion about the April 4 chemical weapons attack in Syria that killed 87 people.
WASHINGTON — White House spokesman Sean Spicer said on Wednesday he had let down President Donald Trump with his «inexcusable and reprehensible» comments comparing the use of poison gas by Syria’s president to the atrocities of Adolf Hitler.
«I made a mistake. There’s no other way to say it. I got into a topic that I shouldn’t have and I screwed up,» Spicer said during an event at a museum in Washington. «On both a personal level and a professional level that will definitely go down as not a very good day in my history,» he added.
